Cromwell was one of the signatories of King Charles I's death warrant in 1649, and he dominated the short-lived Commonwealth of England as a member of the Rump Parliament (1649-1653). On 20 April 1653, he dismissed the Rump Parliament by force, setting up a short-lived nominated assembly known as Barebones Parliament
